Both teams fought hard, but the Eagles' late-game execution proved to be the difference-maker in this tightly contested battle.
Jalen Hurts led the Eagles' offense with 264 passing yards, while Ashton Jeanty contributed significantly on the ground with 92 rushing yards.

Jermaine Johnson II led the Titans' defense with eight total tackles, but it wasn't enough to overcome the Eagles' offensive firepower.
